There has always been a lot of interest in accelerating brain function with the use of drugs and chemicals but I'm not aware of anything yet that stimulates the hippocampus to store long term memory.

Why, Alternating Current and Direct Current, of course! Both AC and DC describe types of current flow in a circuit. In direct current (DC), the electric charge (current) only flows in one direction. Electric charge in alternating current (AC), on the other hand, changes direction periodically. The voltage in AC circuits also periodically reverses because the current changes direction.
